Contemporary Analytic Philosophy Reviews

This book is designed perfectly for a basic introduction to Twentieth Century Analytic Philosophy-especially because of its clear and relevant introductions to each reading, and its coverage. As such, the book prepares students for more advanced work in contemporary philosophy, philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, and philosophy of logic. - Anthony C. Genova, University of Kansas

The editor's style is lively and comfortable for students. - John Tienson, University of Memphis
